My pain pulsing heart
you'll no longer beat me,
nor turn my circles
into uncornered squares.
I've numbered you,
caged you,
clothed you
in serpent's stripped scales.
You're a ribbed orb-
over-rippened by my Agean sun.
You've but one sickly surge
to arch a flattened vein.
Pain pulsing heart,
your neon lights
are starving to blinking pales.
Your deep crushed steps
are unsilvered mirrors 'neath
warming night snow.
You are bleeding to pink-
dying
as the buffalo nickle
aside a rusty rail;
you're the gray blackbird
'midst
molting thorns of foam.

As the pain dies away, ebbing into mists...there the true heart is reinvented, rejuvenated and bursts forth in its true nature...Life.

Well done.
